Lyrics:
"I like the way you keep it from me, woah
I like the way you move in front of me, yeah
Just enough contact to make me come back
So many other girls just make my mind slack
And I like the way you give it to me, yeah
You're in front, I'm behind
Walking down a corridor
The way you're moving yourself
That makes me want you more
I like the way you keep it from me, yeah"

Lyrics:
"I like the way you keep it from me, woah
I like the way you move in front of me, yeah
Just enough contact to make me come back
So many other girls just make my mind slack
And I like the way you give it to me, yeah
Tight jeans and the seams
Snake around your body type
The way they hug, the way they snug
The way they fit you right
I like the way you keep it from me, yeah"
Play Chorus again
